Lynn Chadwick - 1914-2003
This Chadwick exhibition contains a number of new discoveries and covers the whole of his career with a special emphasis on the iconic sculptures of the 1950s and 1960s. It includes three unique original working models made of Stolit, a compound of plaster and iron filings which form the basis from which the mould was taken to cast the work in bronze. The Stolit sculptures in the show left Chadwick’s studio in the 1950s for exhibitions from which they were sold so no bronze casts were ever made. This accompanying catalogue includes colour plates of works included in the exhibition and an insightful essay by Judith LeGrove.
